  • Applications

    Sodium Bromate (CAS 7789-38-0) is an inorganic oxidizing agent used as an oxidant and processing chemical across multiple industries. In cosmetics and personal care, it may function as an oxidant in perm neutralizers; in textile and paper processing it is used for bleaching; in coatings, inks, and polymer processing it serves as an oxidizing agent or processing aid; in cleaning and metal finishing it is used for surface treatment and stain removal; and in analytical chemistry it may be employed as a reagent for redox titrations or as a synthetic intermediate in organic synthesis. Subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
